Overview

Summary

Part one of a two-part season finale. Another copy of Leoben Conoy appears within the fleet with a proposal to President Roslin and Admiral Adama; peace. Unfortunately, there is more to Conoy's offer than what's on the surface. The terms of this new Cylon armistice demand that the human survivors of the Twelve Colonies renounce their false gods and accept the "one true" faith which the Cylons adhear to. They are to let Cylon missionaries enter the fleet and begin preaching the Cylon faith to humanity, and most shockingly of all, a quota of humans is to be offered up annually to assist in the production of Human-Cylon hybrid children. In spite of the potentially horrific terms, the civilian population of the fleet seems to support Conoy's peace plan, but Roslin and Adama do not. Roslin is determed to strike down the peace accord and calls a referendum vote on the matter. Once again she finds herself reaching out to off-again/on-again rival Tom Zarek for pollitial support. "Quantam Leap"'s Dean Stockwell is rumored to appear, but no info has come out about his role. Source: The Patriot Resource

Questions

Analysis

  • Something to keep in mind is that during the Mini-series, "after Picon was nuked, the president offered a complete

unconditional surrender; the Cylon's didn't even respond". What if the Cylons finally accept the surrender which the Colonial government actually already offered? However, this was done by Adar (RDM)|President Adar]], before Roslin was sworn in as president; will she consider this previous offer binding to her new administration? Will other characters point out that President Adar's already surrendering as an reason to agree to the Cylons terms now?
